Over 130 St. Cloud State University students presented research findings at the College of Science and Engineering (COSE) Research Colloquium last week in the SCSU Innovation Hub.
A total of 73 oral and poster presentations were delivered by 136 students. Along with COSE students, individuals from the College of Liberal Arts, the College of Health and Wellness Professions and the College of Education and Learning Design also presented. Over 100 additional students, faculty and guests attended.
“Students conducting research gives them ownership over their learning,” said Rachel Humphrey, assistant professor of meteorology and science education. “The COSE Research Colloquium also gives faculty the opportunity to watch our research advisees grow more confident with their skills and share the results of all their hard work with others.”
The event was a partnership between COSE, Professional and Continuing Education and the Innovation Hub, sponsored by local business partners Louis Industries, VEIT and EssilorLuxottica.
